    Hands down Ninja Scroll.

    Though I also find La Blue Girl–an actual hentai series–to be more funny than it is sexy, because the plots and puns are just fucking amazing and the sex is (mostly) bog standard stuff. Except for that time a dude “air fucked” one of the protagonists with a bellows because they didn’t want to have their dick cut off by her super vaginal strength.

    Elfen Lied and Speedgrapher both immediately spring to mind. Unless you mean porn. Those are not porn.

        They changed the intro song when it was released on DVD. When the show was originally airing, the intro was “Girls on Film” (グラビアの美少女) by Duran Duran; the version on my official (Funimation) DVD copy has “Shutter Speed” instead though which is much less memorable.

          Seriously?! Man…Duran Duran on that was fire. Can’t believe it they would change it.

            Yeah. I expect it was probably some licensing bullshit like either they couldn’t get the rights again for the re-release or it cost to much to get them, but I don’t know why they did it specifically. It irked me when I realized they’d changed it though.

    Highschool DxD is pretty amazing. Yes, it has copious amounts of nudity (mainly just breasts), but the plot, characters, and power system are actually so good! I generally only really like SoL and Romance anime, but sometimes the blend of power systems and SoL just balance out so well - A Certain Scientific Railgun is like that too!

    Probably Berserk. Or maybe Ghost In The Shell + Ghost In The Shell: Standalone Complex seasons 1 and 2.

    Both are truly mature in terms of writing as well as subject matter.

    Ghost In The Shell gets really deep into the political ramifications of potential future technologies through the lense of a sci-fi action crime drama. 18+ for some extreme violence and naked/often scantily clad cyborgs with no nipples.

    Berserk is mostly about found family and overcoming trauma through the lense of a guy with a huge sword in a medieval low-fantasy setting. 18+ for extreme violence, sex, sexual violence, torture, child abuse, I mean just most bad things people do are in there at some point or another. It’s considered horror anime by some.

    Of the ones I’ve seen, probably Berserk. And that’s without an actual anime adaptation that gives it proper justice.
